Justice Woods Vacant Seat.
fWashingtou spccial.l

Some pretty shrewd and well-informed
Democrats here are confident that Attorney
General Garland will be appointed 10 sue
coed Justice Woods. They put the thing
in this way: IL the President had been
dissatisfied with the course OF the Attorney
General during the last two yesrs. he would
have got him out Of the Cabinet. His re-
tention OF b m is evidence that lie ID en-
tirely satisfied with tho uprighsncss Of hid
conduct. That being 10, the Attorney
General has been persecuted, and
the President u under 4sosns o6liga-'
tion to vindicate him, or at least Ee may b
supposed TO be anxious to do SO. Besides,
there would be fine stroke OF politics in
putting tho Attorney General on the Su-
preme bench. The attacks on Mr.. Gar-
land have been TO large extent attacks on
the administration. The vindication Of
Mr.. Garland would be the vindication Of
the administration. II nominated, Mr..
Garland would certainly be confirmed, and
X he were promoted from the Cabinet to
tho Supreme Court tho administration
would be vindicated at the point where it
has been most sharply assailed. 81 cretary
Endicott has been suggested, but NO one can
really expect that Il 9 President would ap-
pointa Massachusetts man in the Southern
circuit. Speaker Carlisle b ,s been men,
toned, but it is believed that b . ambitions
are pol tical rather than judicial. He does
not live in Fifth Circuit, and there 10
al eady one Kentuckian on tie bench.
Senators Pugh and George hav, been
spoken Of. Both are members OF the Sem
nte Judiciary COMMITTEES, and Senator
Georee has been Chief Justice of Missis-
sippi. Doth live in the Fifth Circuit, but
George is sixty years OF ase aud Pugh is
sixty six. The name Of Secretary Bayard
is freely spoken Of in ce injection with the
vacancy.
